I love the weather, and the smells, and oh, the food you cook when it starts to get cold. My husband thinks it is so weird that I don't usually cook breakfast for dinner unless it's cold outside. Same goes for chili. I'm getting better about it but I just have very specific food/weather associations from childhood!

Favorite Fall Activities? MMMM, so many! Walking the trails in showers of colorful leaves, apple whatever baking in the oven (anything with apples in it!), drives through the countryside, stitching on the porch with mountains of color around me, going to craft festivals, junking with wood, jewelery and old dishes, picnicking by the river, reading a good book stretched out in the garden, smelling apples after an afternoon of canning, need I go on? Hope I win thanks!

My favorite fall activity is going to visit my parents. They live a couple of hours away in the country, so we take a nice long drive from the city to see them. It's so great because they really go all out decorating for Halloween. Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

Apple picking is definitely my favorite Fall activity. Though, the one time we went this year, it was unseasonably warm and humid. Didn't feel quite right! I want a sweater and a cold nose and some hot apple cider!

I would say as a kid my favorite fall activity was jumping in piles of freshly raked leaves. Now that I am older, I think that might just hurt too much (and the pile would have to be HUGE!) :) I love to go apple picking in the fall, and watching the squirrels in the neighborhood go crazy collecting walnuts.

Fall or autumn as we call doesn't really exist here. the days become little more crisp and he nights a little cooler but on the whole it is much like summer. I suppose what i look forward to is actually feeling a little cooler.

My favourite activity for fall is a glass or two of wine in front of our hot woodburning stove (after the children have gone to bed!) - it's far better than sewing in the cold dining room!thanks for another great giveaway

Making pumpkin soup and putting lots of it in the freezer for a quick after-work supper on cold nights,,, yum!! Joint favourite,though, is watching my nephew scuffing through fallen leaves and laughing in delight!!

Every fall we take a trip about 30 minutes out of town to a local market garden with a huge pumpkin patch. We pick out our pumpkins for Jack-o-lanterns, and take pictures of our little ones sitting in and among the piles of pumpkins! Pure fall delight!

My favourite fall activity is walking around my neighbourhood and checking out all the fall colour. The trees are gorgeous and most gardens are especially nice in the fall. Also love picking out pumpkins for Halloween.
